To mark International Women’s Day, Animal Free Research UK’s Niamh Haslett observes though many equality battles have been won – especially in science – victory cannot be declared until all women live free of bias, stereotypes and discrimination
In 2021, out of more than 600 Nobel medals awarded in scientific disciplines, only 23 went to women. According to UNESCO, today, only 33 per cent of researchers in the world are women. This clearly highlights a lack of diversity in science.
